WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
This musical journey spans forty years, from the Alaskan Gold Rush to the Florida real estate boom in the 1930s. One a con and the other attempting a respectable life, the brothers stick together through a variety of get-rich-quick schemes. But experiences along the way change their lives in unexpected ways. Sondheim's musical genius and Gary Griffin's insight into the human condition, make a fascinating—and entertaining—artistic team to explore the very real American issues of real estate, capitalism and crooks.
